Uneventful week on the roads for me, but other stuff:

Monday morning I ran into another commuter from my building, a guy I'd never seen before. Turns out he started commuting (been a recreational rider for years) about a month ago. Nice guy, and he gave me the info for some group rides he does that leave from near my house. Even better, they're slower rides--my only bike is my commuter, and though she's dependable and great for commuting, she's not fast--and they ride on Sundays, which is my day off from kid duty.

Monday night I rode home (5 miles), took a short break, then rode about 7 miles to pickup Ultimate Frisbee. Played for 2 hours, then rode home. Damn but I was dehydrated, tired and sore!

Yesterday morning, still tired etc., I slipped on the steps from my house to the garage, gave myself whiplash and landed flat on my back. Now I was tired, dehydrated, and even more sore than I'd been. And my rear tire was flat (2nd time in a week or so). That sucked. Then there was a horrendous headwind for me on the way home.
